“My favorite is the Meat lover pizza, but also, I've tried the Pappardelle Bolognese, and it is out of this world. Great atmosphere and service. I would definitely recommend this place to everyone.“

“I recently visited Leona's Cucina and the customer service is excellent—the staff is incredibly friendly and professional. However, there is a recurring issue with order consistency. Specifically, when you pay for extra toppings or items, you consistently do not receive the extra portions you paid for. While I enjoy the atmosphere, the order accuracy and value for money need to be addressed. I am hopeful that they will improve very quickly, as the service team is great, but the kitchen execution needs to match their standard.“

“Love this place, real people cooking with Love “ Italians “ 🇮🇹“

“Been in Jax for a year and finally made it to Vito's. We'll be back soonly.

Had a reservation and seated quickly. Loved the atmosphere. Dim lighting, white table clothes. Nothing off the scale too fancy. It was all very comfortable. Tables all taken, servers all over. The first thing I noticed were the servers ... the were all busy and taking care of tables. None were idle.

Started w/ house Chianti and fried ravioli. Both great ... raviolis were huge. Red sauce served with it was the house marinara. It was perfect ... and I'm a big red sauce guy. We followed with a Vito salad and a Caesar. Both the right size and the Vito dressing was good.

For entrees I had Chicken Picata. My wife had chicken saltimbocca. This was the highlight of my meal. Two lightly browned cutlets over a bed of spaghetti. Not too many capers and not overly salty which is always a risk. It was perfect! One of the best I've had. My wife had enough to take home for lunch today.

We held our ground on the bread and dessert as we are trying to watch carbs pending a wedding.

Major kudos to Anthony our server. A genuinely nice guy. Answered our questions, super attentive, always there at the right moment. The place has a new number one fan! I'll be back!

Total bill before tip [two glasses of wine, appetizer, two salads, two entrees] just over $90. Very well worth it!“

“Delicious ❣️Enjoyed every bite❣️“

“What a gem hidden on Baymeadows ... May not look like much from outside but once in, excellent from the service to the food. A warm environment, seems really family based, the food is so so good, just like nonna made and very well priced. Just what our neighborhood was missing!“

“Josephine’s is so underrated! Always a great meal and great service! Date night or family night it’s always the perfect spot!“

“Fantastic food and service! We found this place while on vacation and were impressed!“

“Just love this restaurant! Food is amazing... when I'm coming to Jacksonville always make my reservation in advance. Can be busy especially on Saturday night!“

“We didn't have to wait long...The food was great! Everything was very fresh. Our services was also great. And they have plenty of Employees ♥️.We will be going back soon!“

“Our favorite place, and where I take any visitors I may have. Always delicious.“

“I just visited Uncle Charlie's and as always I was more than satisfied with my delicious meal. I ordered the lasagna with an extra meatball. My husband and son ordered Uncle Charlie's Special ( the sub ) and both said it was scrumptious. From the first time I tasted their food I told them they have a loyal customer for life. They not only meet our expectations, they exceed them. I don't care what day or time we come in the food is always mouthwatering unlike many other restaurants whose dishes are continuously inconsistent. If you have been there before your experience itself should be enough for you to come back and if you have never been let me invite you. I promise you won't be disappointed.“

“Thanks to our attentive and knowledgeable waiter, Sebastien we had a wonderful experience. The service, drinks and ambience were exemplary, and the food was quite good. The salmon was delicious, but the branzino was slightly overcooked. The dessert was unbelievably delicious! Overall, the flavors were tasty and we will definitely be back.“

“Dr. Courtney Whiting is the best that I have ever had. There is no doubt in my mind she cares about my girl. She always does what’s best for her even getting down on the floor with her to make her feel at ease. Holly has always been wonderful to as a nurse. I am 100% confident in their care for Izzy. I consider Dr Whiting Family as she takes care of what’s most important to me and does it with love, compassion, wisdom, and passion. I am so grateful to her. I would never allow anyone else to care for my Izzy except her.“

“Fast service, very friendly staff, and a relaxed, casual atmosphere.
The salads are surprisingly good — super fresh, crisp, and easily one of the best parts of the meal. Prices are good, portions are filling and it’s an easy spot for a no‑stress Italian dinner or takeout.“

“Been coming here for years. Great pizza, very good crust and sauce. Delicious“

“We tried Brick for the first time and my husband, five year old, and I absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, very Midwest. Fried pickles were crispy and pizza was on point. The crust was my highlight, as it was light and flavorful. Service was amazing, but felt bad because the waitress was our hostess, server, and busser.“

“Delicious! Come for the delicious pasta and pizza and stay for the gelato! Great service.“

“The store itself is a bit small and the salad wasn't really good at all mostly because the sweet tasting italian dressing but all can be overlooked because this is the best and most authentic NY style pizza in the Jacksonville area. I can't wait to come back again and maybe try their calzones or sandwiches although it'll be hard to pass up a slice of good old pepperoni.“

“I eat here at least once a week. This place is absolutely amazing, and everyone on staff is friendly and patient. Love this place!“

“I used to order Rosati's up north all the time. Now that I'm down in Florida, glad to see I can get a legit taste of home. Thin Crust Pizza, Italian Beef and Calzone, were all great!“

“I honestly don’t care for the food here, but Josh’s spectacular customer service, positive vibes and attentiveness made the entire experience worthwhile, I know I was a little stressful when ordering, however, Josh so kindly and patiently walked me through the menu and the ingredients used in the different food items making it easier to choose what I wanted!! Every restaurant needs this Josh and Josh needs a huge raise!!!, thank you so much again Josh for your amazing customer service.“
